Real Men On High
A look at the linesmen who work at extraordinary heights, and in all weathers, to make sure that the National Grid delivers electricity to our homes 24 hours a day.
Steve is at pylon school, where he and his fellow hopefuls are hoping to join the linesmen who work at extraordinary heights, and in all weathers, to make sure that the National Grid delivers electricity to our homes 24 hours a day. If they have the head for heights, they might be able to join a team trying to rewire Britain. It's a job that sorts the men from the boys, and it's certainly not for everyone. Minicams, headcams and pylon cams record the work every high-wire step of the way.
